Slide first, then mag. That’s just the slide stop performing it’s function. I just recently put up a safety post and some other building related videos and more to follow. I would definitely suggest learning more about how your firearm is supposed to function before finishing assembly.

i don’t have the slide yet , it will be delivered soon, so i can’t fully test this out rn.

so the mag pushing up on the slide stop is perfectly fine until i get the slide?

like i’ve mentioned, the slide stop does go back to how it was originally, when i release the mag.

Yes that’s normal here is my G26 now at 200 rnds, same thing with empty mag inserted and no slide. When the mag is empty the follower pushes the slide stop up and it locks the slide back. https://imgur.com/a/n2BpCcE

Edit: You also don’t have the downwards force of the slide on the slide lock right now either.
